Since it was designed to make programmers’ work as easy as possible, jGRASP integrates dynamic object viewers as well as a viewer canvas that can function together with a built-in debugger and Java workbench. The main window of jGRASP enables users to easily browse to the file they want to modify orĬreate a new project from scratch, be it plain text, Ada95, C, C++, Java, VHDL, Python or Objective-C.ĭepending on the programming language, developers can start creating Control Structure Diagrams for all languages previously mentioned, Complexity Profile Graphs for Java and Ada or UML class diagrams solely for Java.
In order to install jGRASP, one first needs to install Java Runtime Environment, which also means that the application can run on all operating systems supported by Java, i.e. JGRASP is one of the lightweight ones, and it was designed to facilitate the generation of software visualizations so as to improve app comprehensibility. Programmers are fully aware that a very valuable of their work is the application they use to develop their projects, as a large and heavy IDE (Integrated Development Environment) will slow them down, while a slim and fast one can help them complete their projects in due time.
